The [[Assembly]], having intercepted transmissions from the [[Covenant battle network]], noted the presence of the Flood as a "third variable". Due to the third participant being a terrifying opponent to the Covenant, the [[Assembly Minority]] suggested the possibility of forming an association - even a union - with it.

In early [[2557]], nearly twenty-six years after the shield world's destruction, the ''[[Ace of Spades]]'', a [[salvager]] vessel captained by Sergeant John Forge's daughter [[Rion Forge]], visited the debris field and recovered [[Little Bit|a fragment]] of the shield world's custodian AI.<ref>'''Halo: Smoke and Shadow'''</ref> Several months later, ONI conducted a [[Mission to the Korinth Prior system|mission]] within its debris field to search for evidence of the ''Spirit of Fire'',<ref>'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #4]]''</ref> having learned of it from data stolen from the ''Ace of Spades''. Shortly after the ''Ace of Spades'' was returned to the debris field by [[343 Guilty Spark]], a massive UNSC fleet emerged from slipspace and nuked the debris field. The nuclear bombardment was expected to blow the field to bits and disrupt its gravity with the system's star. Anything that survived would most likely be pulled into the star's gravity well and destroyed, completely eliminating the remnants of the Etran Harborage.<ref>'''[[Halo: Renegades]]'''</ref>
